Republican James G. Blaine, who served as Speaker of the House, U.S. Senator, and Secretary of State, was a prominent politician in the late 1800s.

Blaine and his running mate John Logan narrowly lost the 1884 presidential election to Democrat Grover Cleveland, viewed by many as an honest and pragmatic reformer.
